As a two-sport athlete at Fountain-Fort Carson (CO), I have learned the value of hard work, teamwork, and determination. In football and track, I have been a leader for the past two years and have helped lead our team to the playoff. In the classroom, I have maintained a 4.2 while taking AP classes and have been recognized on the Presidential and National Honor Society.Playing sports has also taught me how to handle adversity and persevere through challenges. In my summer of my freshman year, I suffered a bone injury that required three-month lengthy recovery. Rather than letting this setback defeat me, I used it as motivation to come back stronger and more focused. As a result, I was able to gain a Varsity position.In addition to my athletic achievements, I have also been actively involved in my community through Elevated program. I have learned the importance of giving back and being a leader in my community.I believe that my experiences as a high school athlete have prepared me for success in college and beyond. I am confident that I have the drive, dedication, and character to excel academically and athletically at the next level. Thank you for considering me as a recruit for your program.
